PSY is fucking awesome, but how is he so successful?

I personally like his rock songs better than his pop-songs. I wish he would stick more to that style of music =/

well i still think his song will end up becoming a one hit wonder by one year's time. but i do see him ending up appearing for the 2018 winter games opening or closing ceremonies.

I highly doubt that. 인순이 probably will get one.

I want 김윤아 to sing, but 인순이 has like a 98% chance of being picked for the closing ceremony because she's so famous. I don't think that newer Pop will be pushed. They may as well get 간미연 because she's awesome. I'm just saying.
 
Actually the reason why Gangnam Style didn't catch on in Japan is because WHEN Gangnam Style was released, the political conflict between Japan & South Korea over "those islands" (dunno the name, I'd have to look it up again) was reaching its boiling point.

Even now, Japan has now basically began to ignore all associations with most K-pop artists b/c there is still on-going political conflict between Japan & S. Korea..........even to the point where the K-Pop artists invited to last year's Kohaku Uta Gassen WILL NO LONGER BE INVITED FOR THIS YEAR'S EVENT.

So yeah, that's why Gangnam Style isn't seducing the ears and eyes of the Japanese.

As far as I know, Kara is still going to have a concert at the Tokyo Dome on January 6 and I do plan on going. The islands name are Takeshima (to the Japanese) and Dokdo (to the Koreans).
 
The dance had little to do with the "viral" success of Psy's Gangnam Style.

The video was just down right funny is all that it boils down to, and it was so funny that people wanted their friends, boyfriends/girlfriends, mommas, grandmommas, daddies, granddaddies, sisters/brothers, etc. to experience the hilarity that they had when they watched this video via YouTube.

The fact that Gangnam Style had an addicting dance and chorus happened to be a BONUS, as a matter of fact, the most popular part of "Gangnam Style" WASN'T the chorus or the horse dance itself.................IT WAS THIS

Most popular part of Gangnam Style (not the horse dance, not the chorus)

Are you sure it wasn't this? :P

I know it was this part that grabbed my attention first. At the time I never heard of Gangnam Style and thought this must be from an Asian Drama of some sort. Then I saw it on TV in public and I could recognize the ass. The ass that was on someone's HJU sig.

That was the SECOND MOST POPULAR PART..............the female fans of the video/song didn't appreciate that part very much (which is why this is SECOND, not FIRST like the Elevator Man)

Why? Were they jealous of her ass?

Elevator man is overrated IMO. I really don't see how he could've made Gangnam Style the smash hit that other K-Pop songs just aren't.



To be honest, I've been thinking for a bit, and I still can't see how Gangnam Style became the smash it it was. I think it JUST DID.

But on the other hand I'm glad that it did. It's pretty much the only song of 2012 that I like. The rest are crap, with Justin Beaver and Dubstep crap being dominant..

And I also think currently South Korea is the only country where good music comes from. They have PSY, Girls Generation.. even BoA's Korean.
 
Visual Kei has a much better chance.

I think that the Visual Kei wave is coming, so it's funny that SM screwed up TRAX now that it's gaining popularity outside Japan.
 
I highly doubt that. 인순이 probably will get one.

but she is a figure skater, she'll appear at the olympics anyways even if she doesn't sing......wait, who are you talking about again? Insooni? or Kim Yu Na?
